Here at YourHomeStyle HQ, nothing puts us in the mood for a party quite like bunting. These versatile and re-usable decorations are an absolute doddle to hang, so you can set the scene for a celebration in next to no time. We know you’ve got your sights set on May’s bank holiday weekends for a chance to get together with friends and family, so here’s our pick of the best coronation bunting to help you create your perfect party look.
Floral King Charles III Coronation Bunting
King Charles is a keen gardener, and the gardens at his home in Highgrove were designed ‘to please the eye and sit in harmony with nature’, so we love that this bunting has a pretty, floral design that we think he would enjoy too!
His Royal Highness looks regal sitting in harmony with bunches of vintage blooms, including roses and dahlias, and as the pennants of this bunting are printed on both sides, it looks blooming lovely from every angle.
This bunting comes with 2.5m of rope and 12 card pennants in three vivid designs that you can arrange to suit your style. If the rustic hemp rope supplied isn’t to your taste, why not thread the pennants onto lengths of pretty ribbon instead?
Union Jack Coronation Bunting
If you’re looking for long-lasting style, this fabric bunting is the perfect choice for you. The 100% cotton flags are covered in a playful Union Jack design that shows the British flag in a variety of sizes. It’s an eye-catching choice that means even one length of this bunting would make a big impact at any garden parties you’re holding on the coronation weekend.
British Union Jack Paper Bunting
Set hearts a-flutter with this gorgeous paper Union Jack bunting. This classic party decoration can be re-used after the coronation to celebrate everything from Wimbledon to VE day. But if you’re not planning to use this bunting again, it can easily be recycled as it - and the packaging it comes in - contains no plastic.
Right Royal Organic Cotton Bunting
Layer up this jolly red, white and blue bunting with one of the Union Jack designs on this list, for the ultimate in coronation party style. Each of the 100% cotton fabric pennants is finished with a tiny cotton tassel, in a contrasting colour, and as this bunting is made of fabric, its hardwearing and reusable.
YHS top tip: The product description does mention that this bunting is washable, but we suggest gently handwashing it in salted water, as some of the reviews mention that the red colouring can run.
Vintage Crown And Union Jack Bunting
Give your coronation celebration a vintage vibe with this crown and Union Jack fabric bunting. The pennants on this generous 4-metre-long bunting alternate between a patriotic flag design and a striking red embroidered crown motif.
We love that this bunting is slightly off-white, rather than a bright white, as it creates a subtle, traditional look. As with the other fabric bunting we have chosen for this list, it’s made of 100% cotton and can be reused again and again.
King Charles III Coronation gold crown bunting
This gorgeous gold bunting will be the crowning glory of your coronation celebrations this year. 20 golden cardboard crowns and a 2.5 metre long gold ribbon makes up this design, so you can cut the ribbon to a shorter length, or add your own, longer ribbon to personalise the look. You could also hang the crowns individually to decorate smaller areas.
Try threading them with ribbon and hanging them on the backs of your guest’s chairs to add glorious golden details to your party look. After your coronation party, this bunting can easily be reused for baby showers, or even weddings, thanks to its glittering good looks.
King Charles III Official Emblem Coronation Bunting
Featuring King Charles III’s official cypher and coronation emblem, this bunting is a sophisticated choice. The coronation emblem uses delicate line drawings of the national flower of each of the countries that make up the United Kingdom, to create the outline of a crown. This lightly floral design will set the tone for an elegant garden party. This bunting comes with 3 metres of organza ribbon for you to thread the 12 pennants onto. Alternate between the cypher and emblem designs for a classic look, or split the designs into two and create two, shorter lengths of bunting with different styles.
